ode:=diff(y(x),x) = sin(x)/(cos(y(x))+1); 
ic:=[y(0) = 0]; 
dsolve([ode,op(ic)],y(x), singsol=all);
 

\[ y = \operatorname {RootOf}\left (-1+\cos \left (x \right )+\textit {\_Z} +\sin \left (\textit {\_Z} \right )\right ) \]

from sympy import * 
x = symbols("x") 
y = Function("y") 
ode = Eq(Derivative(y(x), x) - sin(x)/(cos(y(x)) + 1),0) 
ics = {y(0): 0} 
dsolve(ode,func=y(x),ics=ics)
 

\[ y{\left (x \right )} + \sin {\left (y{\left (x \right )} \right )} + \cos {\left (x \right )} = 1 \]
